rycezmom Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Sometimes Amanda, the unwanted or imperfect ones are the best and most heart valuable treasure. You were so very wise to recognize this wonderful boy for the true treasure he has been to you. Pain is the price we pay for love but the true pain is in missing them. I know you miss your Memphis dearly. I so appreciate all the times you shared him with us so we could know him as you do. Hearts heal when they are ready and I hope yours heals well with the pleasure of wonderful memories of your handsome Memphis. L.

fsugrad Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 What a beautiful tribute to such a special boy. The reason he kept getting picked over at the adoption events is because he was meant for you. Handsome Memphis, you are missed and loved forever.
